Hi gopal,

What properties do you have on the form? Are you using floated elements? Absolutely positioned elements?

Is it the whole form or just the select elements?

I believe IE has an unfixable error when it comes to stack order of form elements. They always seem to go on top. If you are catering to IE, you will have to move your form's location.

Xapti,

If I recall correctly, you can also draw your content in an iframe and have it show on top of form elements.

Think I heard something about that too. I guess it's an option, but a little messy.

The menu form in IE is an infinite z-index which mean it will always display on top of anything.

However Firefox seems to get it right
